The problem with USPS if you live in an apartment is that they drop the box at the door. Many packages are stolen.

It took 3 days from the time I dropped it at the Post Office on a Wednesday and  was delivered on Friday.    Once repaired, it was shipped  to me via UPS ground which took 9 days, of which it sat in a UPS distribution center for 3 days.   I'm not bashing UPS, just stating the facts.
